- Description
A terrific storm hits Wellington seems to focus on the NIWA building. A voice from inside the building apologises for sounding unscientific but suggests that the heavens are not very happy with Jim Salinger's sacking. Refers to the sacking of Jim Salinger, one of New Zealand's top climate scientists, from his job at the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (Niwa). The high profile scientist, whose work contributed to a Nobel prize, is reported to have been sacked for ignoring a new Niwa policy against speaking publicly without prior approval. There was a hail storm early in the morning of 6 May.
